P61A Pellet Stove
In the Stove Temperature Mode and with the igniter
toggle switch in the Auto position, the stove will light
automatically and can be adjusted to the desired setting
using the same temperature control dial as is used in
the Room Temperature Mode. The heat output and fuel
consumption will remain constant regardless of room
temperature. The settings from 1 to 7 on the inner ring
of the temperature dial provide for relative heat output
settings with 1 being low and 7 being the maximum.
In Stove Temperature Mode, the stove will not
automatically shut off unless the stove runs out of fuel
or is turned off.
Never pull the plug to shut down the stove. This will stop
the combustion blower and smoke will escape through
window and door gaskets.
When the ignitertoggle switch is set to manual in this
mode, the distribution blower will not turn on with a
temperature dial setting from 1 to 5. The advantage of
this mode is to allow the operator to have a large viewing
re without blowing extra heat into the room.
During operation, with the temperature dial set
at #4 or less, the distribution fan will not operate. A #4
on the temperature dial and a #5 on the feed adjuster is
approximately 80% output. It is not necessary to oper-
ate the distribution blower below this point. Therefore,
the control allows a higher burn rate ( a larger viewing
re) without an excess of hot air blowing into the room.
An example of when to use the Manual Stove Tempera-
ture Mode is if you want to watch a large re and the
room is already up to temperature. The Stove Tempera-
ture Mode allows you to have a larger re and a lower
sound level, without the distribution blower.
For most premium grade pellet fuels the Feed Adjuster
Knob should be set at 4. If higher ash fuels are used
the setting should be increased to 5 or 6. Also higher
settings are required if you would like to get the
maximum heat output from the stove. At the maximum
burn rate (with the temperature dial on 7/90° and the
feed adjuster at 6) there should be 1" or more of ash on
the front of the burn pot. If there is less than 1" of ash,
turn the feed adjuster knob down to a lower setting.
The best way to shut down the stove is to simply let it
run out of pellets. The stove will shut down automatically.
Alternatively, you can turn the Mode Selector to “off”.
This will cause the re to gradually die down and go out.
The re will not go out immediately and may take more
than an hour to fully shut down.
If the stove is left to run out of fuel, you may get a 6
blink status light. If this happens simply reset the control
board by turning the mode selector to OFF and back
ON.
The setting above will produce continuous maximum heat
output with the distribution blower at full speed.
The setting above will produce continuous medium heat
output with the distribution blower at low speed.
